The government's agricultural plans also include an allocation of Rs70 billion for high-tech farming machinery and the expansion of the Green Tractor Scheme. Maryam Nawaz said 25,000 tractors had already been provided to farmers through subsidies, while local manufacturing of agricultural machinery was also being encouraged.

New agro-parks are planned for Sargodha, Bhakkar, Khanewal and Okara. These facilities are expected to improve the grading, processing and storage of crops such as mangoes, kinnows, oranges and potatoes, helping farmers reduce losses and explore better opportunities for value-added exports.

Earlier in the match, India managed 88 runs in their allotted six overs. Shashank Singh was their leading scorer with 40 runs from 11 balls, including five sixes and two fours. Nitish Rana contributed 19, while Thangarasu Natarajan remained unbeaten on 12.

India appeared to be building a competitive total at 74-2 after 4.3 overs. However, Pakistan's bowlers turned the innings around by taking three wickets for just four runs in the closing stages.

Abdul Samad claimed two wickets in his over, dismissing Rahul Tewatia and captain Krunal Pandya without scoring. Ahmed Daniyal then removed Shashank Singh in the final over, restricting India to 88.

The award was received on behalf of the authority by its Managing Director, DIG Ahsan Younas. The recognition acknowledges the work of PSCA and Punjab Police in introducing technology-based approaches to public security and vehicle crime prevention.

Beyond the award itself, the achievement highlights how artificial intelligence can become an important part of modern public services. From monitoring vehicles to supporting investigations, digital systems are creating additional tools for law enforcement agencies to address security challenges.

For Pakistan, the international recognition provides an opportunity to showcase its progress in technology-led policing.

The encounter highlights the emotional connections that can develop between public figures and the people who look up to them. For the student, the opportunity to meet Punjab's chief minister appeared to carry significance beyond an ordinary public interaction.

Entertainment

Can Pakistan Turn Its Storytelling Into A Global Opportunity?

Saeed's remarks raise a larger question about how Pakistani entertainment can evolve without losing its identity. The country already has established writers, actors and production houses, along with dramas that attract audiences internationally. The challenge is creating more varied content that can work across different formats and viewing habits.

His own experience on Netflix's The Crown, where he portrayed Dr Hasnat Khan, also shaped his views on professional discipline and production management. He highlighted the structured schedules and organised working practices he observed during the international production.

Music

A Lasting Legacy Beyond The Stage

Over the course of his career, Tabassum reached audiences through radio broadcasts, television appearances, live shows and Pashto films. His work helped introduce traditional folk forms to wider audiences while keeping their emotional depth and cultural significance at the centre of his music.

In his later years, declining health led him to step away from singing. He had largely withdrawn from the entertainment industry more than a decade before his death and spent his final years in poor health.

His legacy lives on through his recordings and the songs that continue to connect listeners with Pashto musical heritage.

Justice

Accountability Must Include The Right To Question Power

The latest sentence comes after the couple received 17-year prison terms in a separate case involving social media posts. The Supreme Court suspended those sentences in September while their appeals remained pending, but they were subsequently arrested again in connection with the security breach case.

The repeated imprisonment of two lawyers who say they are being targeted for their activism raises wider concerns about the space available for human rights advocacy in Pakistan.

Those allegations must be assessed through evidence and independent legal scrutiny. Public trust depends on justice being both delivered and seen to be fair.
